Answers:
- a limit on the launchers for intercontinental ballistic missiles (yes)
- a ban on all new missile programs in the US and the USSR (yes)

SALT II placed numerical limits on strategic delivery systems (ICBM, SLBM and heavy bomber launchers) and restricted development/deployment of new types of strategic missile systems. It did not end proxy wars, ban all nuclear production, or set limits on worldwide missile launch sites.
